Incredible Reunion Between Wolves and Their Human Companion

Wolves are widely regarded as the ferocious and predatory cousins to dogs, one of our most cherished companion animals. Yet a new video shows these wild animals behaving no differently toward a human companion than domesticated dogs.

Over the course of two years, a woman, known only as Anita, socialized with the wolf pack at the Polar Zoo in Salangsdalen, Norway, the world’s northernmost zoo. She returned to visit the wolves after a two month hiatus. When the wolves spotted Anita, they rushed toward her and reacted with total delight by jumping all over her, whining excitedly and repeatedly licking her face.
